Overview

  • Just Stop Oil held its last demonstration in London on April 26, 2025, marking the end of its three-year campaign of disruptive protests.
  • The group claims success after the Labour government adopted a policy halting new oil and gas exploration licenses, its primary demand.
  • Over 3,000 activists were arrested since the group’s inception in 2022, with 11 currently imprisoned and more facing sentencing in May.
  • The campaign's high-profile actions included targeting art, monuments, and major events, drawing both significant attention and public criticism.
  • Just Stop Oil plans to pivot from direct action to broader climate advocacy, while continuing to challenge anti-protest laws and support jailed activists.
